Antioxidants are some of the most beneficial ingredients you can find in skincare products! These potent compounds help us maintain good health, prevent premature aging, boost hydration, and support cell repair and regeneration. While you can get many antioxidants through a good diet and over-the-counter supplements, topical application of antioxidants in your skincare routine offers several benefits.
Whether you’re looking to reduce visible signs of aging, acne, or inflammation, here are three antioxidants you can find in skincare products to encourage a healthy, happy complexion. Keep reading to learn where to find these ingredients in our products from Isomers Skincare, from glutathione serum to green tea leaf extract!
L-Glutathione
Glutathione is one of the most important naturally occurring antioxidants in the human body and is widely considered the “master antioxidant.” Glutathione is commonly used in supplements, but many people are unaware that it can also be applied topically.
This antioxidant targets hyperpigmentation, protects the skin barrier from dehydration, and shields against free radicals. At Isomers, we consider it the “desert island” pick among skincare antioxidants due to its numerous skin benefits and compatibility with various skin types.
We offer three main products that contain glutathione:
- Glutathione Antioxidant Serum
- Glutathione Deep Crease Correcting Cream
- Glutathione Antioxidant Body Cream
Vitamin C (Sodium-Ascorbyl Phosphate)
Vitamin C is likely the first thing that comes to mind when thinking about antioxidants. This vitamin, also referred to as ascorbic acid, is a powerhouse antioxidant that can reduce dark spots, promote an even skin tone, boost collagen production, and protect the skin from free radicals.
Paired with good quality SPF, Vitamin C-based products like our Brightening Cream and After Sun Body Cream also offer protection against the damaging effects of UV rays. They are great additions to any skincare regimen, especially when the sun is shining bright!
Green Tea Extract (Camellia Sinesis Leaf)
Green tea is good for more than a delicious brew; it’s also great for the skin! Whether you drink green tea regularly or apply it topically, it provides antioxidant benefits and protection against environmental stressors.
This tea leaf helps combat free radicals in the body, reduces oxidative stress, and provides additional protection against premature aging. It also has a nice soothing effect that helps combat redness and discomfort in the skin.
Pairing salicylic acid with green tea is an effective way to target acne-prone skin. The salicylic acid gently exfoliates and unclogs pores, while the green tea provides a soothing effect that helps reduce irritation and redness.
You can find Camellia sinesis extract in our 2% Salicylic Acid BHA Exfoliating Serum and our 1% Salicylic Acid 1% Azelaic Acid 1% Niacinamide Serum.
